With the final approval for the disposition of these items of equipment and as soon as the modular building is relocated, hospital personnel will not have any reason or business at the old hospital site with the exception of the warehouse. Your assistance in bringing this matter to final conclusion will be greatly appreciated. Y%JArj Yours truly, RORRY F. MEADOWS Administrator THE ATTORNEY NOTED THAT WE HAVE BEEN OPERATING UNDER THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE COUNTY WAS PURCHASING ONLY THE PERSONAL PROPERTY AT THE HOSPITAL THAT THE COUNTY COULD MAKE USE OF, NOT FOR THE PURPOSE OF RESALE. THE ABOVE LETTER LISTS THE FINAL ITEMS THE HOSPITAL BOARD WISHES TO TAKE AND SELL. ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR NELSON STATED THAT ON MOST OF THE ITEMS LISTED WE HAVE NO QUESTION; BUT THERE IS SOME QUESTION ABOUT THE MORGUE FREEZER. HE STATED THAT THE ONLY ITEM WE WOULD HAVE A POSSIBLE USE FOR WOULD BE A PORTION OF THE LABORATORY CASEWORK BECAUSE WHEN WE GET INTO THE UTILITY BUSINESS, THEY WILL NEED A SMALL LABORATORY TO CONDUCT TESTS ON WATER. MR. NELSON STATED THAT HE HAS DISCUSSED THIS WITH MR. MEADOWS, AND THEY WOULD HAVE NO OBJECTION TO MAKING AN EXCEPTION ON THE LABORATORY ' CASEWORK. HE, THEREFORE, RECOMMENDED THAT ALL THE OTHER ITEMS BE RELEASED TO THE HOSPITAL BOARD. ATTORNEY COLLINS ASKED WHETHER MR. NELSON HAD NOT INTENDED TO REQUEST A STATEMENT FROM THE HOSPITAL BOARD THAT THEY WOULD ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE MORGUE. CHAIRMAN WODTKE STATED THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO CONTACT DR. ,L SCHOFIELD ON THIS MATTER. HE IS THE MEDICAL EXAMINER FOR SEVERAL COUNTIES AND HAS WORKED WELL WITH THE HOSPITAL IN THE PAST, BUT HAS NOW EXPRESSED SOME CONCERN ABOUT WORKING IN THE NEW HOSPITAL WITHOUT A LARGE FEE BEING CHARGED, ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR NELSON STATED THAT HE HAS SPOKEN TO MR. MEADOWS AND HE DOES NOT FEEL THERE WOULD BE A PROBLEM WITH THE MORGUE 53 B
